The home team began their League campaign with a shocking (2-1) defeat against Olympique Beja. Even though it was apparent that they rested players for their encounter in the CAF Champions League later after the game, Etoile du Sahel were wasteful and deserved to lose. The Red and White are one of the most successful teams in the Tunisian League. After finishing below the top four in the season before without continental games, Etoile du Sahel returned to the CAF Champions League following their successful season in the Tunisian League.
Etoile du Sahel won the Tunisian League with a six-point gap at the top. They scored nineteen times while conceding just three goals in the championship round.
The Red and White have been active in the transfer market, and we are confident they’ll retain the league this season.
US Ben Guerdane
The visitors lost to Club Africain in their first home game as Bassem Srarfi scored the only goal that denied them a point. US Ben Guerdane, who struggled in the championship round last season, have failed to improve their squad with quality signings and suffered their first defeat of the season.
US Ben Guerdane picked up twenty-one points from a possible thirty-nine, scoring eight while conceding sixteen goals.
US Ben Guerdane always starts well; we expect a more consistent performance from them this season.
